Aircraft program
Family of low-wing single turboprop agricultural aircraft. Also known as S2R (S2-R) Turbo-Thrush series. Includes the variants 510G switchback firefighter Single Engine Air Tanker (SEAT) and 510GR.
The aircraft as engineered: what it is built from, the systems it flies with, and its configuration — each box a theme.
Technical reference compiled with AI research; a value appears only where two independent research passes and a web fact-check agree. Gaps are deliberate.
